SImple Tesla Coil
Hello, my name is Gavin Hummel and I discovered a new and SIMPLE way to make a tesla coil. Also note, I am 13 years old so DO NOT BULLY ME 💀
Supplies
You will need:
- Two DC motors (Switching)
- Capacitors (Optional)
- Thick copper wire (Primary Coil)
- Thinner copper wire (Secondary)
- LED (Testing if circuit works)
- Diode (Its a diode)
These items/components are pretty much everything you need.
The Schematic
This is the schematic; yes.
The primary coil will be around 3-5 turns.
The secondary coil must be at least 100 turns. I prefer 200 turns.
The DC motor connected to the tesla coil will be switching on and off.
Cut the DC Motor
Check out this instructable to see how to cut a dc motor:

Connect
Well its obvious, you follow the schematic and BOOM! You did it!
Finish; Results
In order to make a coil for the LED, just make a coil around 3 turns and connect your LED to it. You may add capacitors if you wish just to make it so that it does not blink; filter.
